"But Kimi was in a similar position last year and it was all settled by the end of the year. And Genii had the plan to do the same this year.”
So you're PLANNING to pay your drivers late? No wonder Raikkonen left! For goodness' sake, somebody with half a brain please buy this once great team and kick Eric Boullier to the kerb.

Tesla - this is not a new offer from Lotus for the 2014 season - did you even read the article? Webber's decision was in relation to the 2005 season when he had offers from both Renault (i.e. Renault proper, not Lotus/Genii capital) and Williams following his drive at Jaguar.

I'm sure Massa would like to win at ANY race again, let alone Spa. He hasn't won a race for over five and a half years, despite driving for a top team.
I can't believe that his contract was renewed for this year. It can only be down to Ferrari having someone lined up for next year and needing a seat warmer in the meantime.

@twowheelsareenough - seriously champ, now you're just embarrassing yourself. Perez has not won a race. Vettel drove well for his maiden win, but it was largely due to the team gambling on switching to a wet set up after quali. If that race were dry, Vettel would certainly not have won.
Ricciardo has done nothing better than Buemi or Algersuari, huh? How about 5 straight top ten qualifying performances? His race results are comparable - all three have a highest finishing position of 7th.
As to Ricciardo vs Vergne - Ricciardo has been dudded by poor strategy calls on a number of occassions and while Vergne has been driving well, he is quite simply not as quick as Ricciardo. I doubt the team boss of the triple WCC would get that call wrong - he definitely thinks Ricciardo is the pick over Vergne.
I've no idea why you think a win or pole position is required by either of the STR drivers to be promoted. You're deluded if you think that the STR8 is capable of being driven to pole positio

@twowheelsareenough - maybe stick to watching two wheels, chief. Lewis Hamilton had no F1 race experience before he debuted for a top team, then went on break all sorts of rookie year records and place second in the championship.

Just clever misdirection from Horner. He knows that by not flat out denying a rumour, the media will be all over it like a cheap suit, taking pressure off the Ricciardo/Raikonnen question. I'm sure the meeting would have been regarding Sainz Jr filling Ricciardo's old seat at Torro Rosso.
That's my theory, anyway.
